Fundamental information
In terms of supply and production: In June, the reference production of silicon metal was around 327600 tons, with an increase in production. In July, we entered a period of abundant water supply. Although a small portion of production capacity resumed in Yunnan and southwestern regions, the overall supply of silicon metal decreased due to reduced production in Xinjiang alone.
In terms of demand: Currently, the demand for metallic silicon remains mainly driven by rigid procurement, and there has been a slight increase in downstream polycrystalline silicon production, which may boost future demand.
Market analysis in the future
Currently, the trading in the metal silicon spot market is moderate, and the supply and demand transmission performance is still good. The metal silicon data analyst from Business Society predicts that in the short term, the domestic metal silicon spot market will mainly operate with large stability and small fluctuations, and specific changes in supply and demand information need to be closely monitored.
